Water Wetting Titanium. Long lasting performance.

Aculon's hydrophilic titanium coating technologies bond with metal at the nano-scale to create a highly hydrophilic functionalized surface. The nanoscale coating creates a hydrophilic (water-attracting) surface to attract water and allow it to easily wick across the surface of the titanium. Aculon's innovative hydrophilic coating technology is extremely easy to apply through many different methods, requiring no costly capitol equipment or complex application procedures. As with all metals, titanium is naturally hydrophilic, with liquid contact angles less than 90 degrees. Aculon technology routinely boasts liquid contact angles around 10 degrees.

Does your titanium product need a hydrophilic coating?

Hydrophilic surface modification technologies can be used to address a wide variety of problems. Some examples below where a hydrophilic coating will help improve the quality of your product.

  • Functional Issue due to liquid behavior on surface
  • Water droplets/contamination impede optical performance
  • Surface is not lubricious enough
  • Wettability of a surface or powder is not ideal
  • Desire to prevent bubble formation underwater
